Quotes & Sayings About Temporary Bliss

Both good and evil, when they are full grown, become retrospective ... That is what mortals misunderstand. They say of some temporary suffering, 'No future bliss can make up for it,' not knowing that Heaven, once attained, will work backwards and turn even that agony into a glory. And of some sinful pleasure they say 'Let me but have this and I'll take the consequences': little dreaming how damnation will spread back and back into their past and contaminate the pleasure of the sin. — C.S. Lewis

My God, a moment of bliss. Why, isn't that enough for a whole lifetime? — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

So long as man is capable of Prema, Dharma will exist, do not doubt it.
